I sometimes feel as if my engine rpm can take a split second longer to drop when in sport mode, I have always put it down to some kind of anti-lag programming trying to keep the turbo spinning during gearchanges..I dont find it a problem, just took some getting used to at the start.

Two situations this issue happens also with my MCSa:

1) Coming to a stop after driving, the car tends to idle slightly up & down as if something needs adjusting.

2) Climbing a hill, reaching a peak, then going downhill as the car idles--- the same "up & down" oscillating is noticed.

Sometimes these are stronger, sometimes none.

Haven't talked to the dealer yet. Will probably get some flakey answer so I'm not sure if it's worth mentioning. But what the hell. I can be a pest!

i notice this in mine when coming to a stop...07 MC Manual...mainly i only notice it in this situation: coming up to stop sign at around 30mph in 3rd gear and depressing brake and leaving gear in untill around 1100rpm...at around 1200rpm there seems to be an extra push from the car...its especially noticable with slow stops

I sent an email to MiniUSA today. I told them there are reports of the JCW Auto Trans kit [SIZE=2]Improving the issue with throttle response. I asked them if they could look into this. Lets see where it goes??
